In 2014 and thereafter, each town is eligible for a distribution under this subdivision equal to the product of (i) its agricultural property factor, (ii) its town area factor, (iii) its population factor, and (iv) 0.0045. As used in this subdivision, the following terms have the meanings given them:
(1) "agricultural property factor" means the ratio of the adjusted net tax capacity of agricultural property located in a town, divided by the adjusted net tax capacity of all other property located in the town. The agricultural property factor cannot exceed eight;
(2) "agricultural property" means property classified under section 273.13, as homestead and nonhomestead agricultural property, rural vacant land, and noncommercial seasonal recreational property;
(3) "town area factor" means the most recent estimate of total acreage, not to exceed 50,000 acres, located in the township available as of July 1 in the aid calculation year, estimated or established by:
(i) the United States Bureau of the Census;
(ii) the State Land Management Information Center; or
(iii) the secretary of state; and
(4) "population factor" means the square root of the towns' population.
If the sum of the aids payable to all towns under this subdivision exceeds the limit under section 477A.03, subdivision 2c, the distribution to each town must be reduced proportionately so that the total amount of aids distributed under this section does not exceed the limit in section 477A.03, subdivision 2c.
